I just thought it’s funny that AI can’t determine I’m talking about memes. It’s like, look, Gemino bro, all I use you for is making Garfield and Shrek comments
I actually googled that to try to pull a screenshot and the AI summary told me to go to a doctor
Giving me Don Hertzfeldt’s Rejected vibes, if you haven’t seen this it’s hilarious and is probably slightly older than Youtube. There’s irreverent, and then there’s this
Props to anyone who can laugh at themselves over something like this, although it might be the kind of attitude that got him in that pickle in the first place
A couple companies make them like TunerRack but I think the biggest issue is that it’s no longer compatible with the scissor jack. A couple other issues are that the ones that use grub screws to pinch the welds can come off if the grub screws back out from vibration, and the kinds that require drilling sometimes develop obnoxious rattle if they wind up having play.
But the most unintended outcome of all this is usually those things are nice shiny anodized bits, so people tend to still use pads, which kind of defeats the purpose
We evolved to have that response in a world in which hospitals didn’t exist and in which we faced predation by other animals, and ‘curl into a ball feeling like shit for a couple days’ was the most viable way for the body to handle even the most mundane of infections (all the other ideas didn’t make the cut and here we are). But now, 21st century, we’re like ‘oh it’s just the cold’ and actively attempt to mitigate it.
A slew of other things are still stuck in 20,000BC as well, like our bodies not being able to deal with copious amounts of sugar, or thinking we might have difficulties securing our next meal. Cut too many calories trying to lose some fat and your body legit thinks you’re dying and starts breaking down all sorts of soft tissue that isn’t fat. Or vasoconstriction when we’re out shoveling snow with a warm house 15ft away, all sorts of shit
Yeah it’s horrible, but I think it’s made even worse because the premise and concept sounds like it’d make for a really great game. An open world sandbox of ass kicking, like Hell’s Angels meets Fallout with a destructable/interactable environment. It’s such a good idea but unfortunately Rockstar didn’t pick up on it and we got this instead :-/
Title is fucking metal. Box is wild. Panned as one of the worst games ever made
It’s pretty wild to think they took this long to prohibit using US-based software for such sensitive information
For me it’s the difference between a preponderance of evidence suggesting such, and something being applied and proven until any doubt is removed.
For example, I was trying to find studs in drywall recently (last house was plaster and lathe), and looking at things Socratically, I could use a stud finder but I might be drilling into conduit or a pipe. So I was like “I can use magnets to hit drywall screws to try to confirm the presence of a stud”, and it seems reasonable, but I’ve never attempted it in practice, and there could be all sorts of things a magnet could hit, since I’ve no experience with drywall, how close a steel pipe could be, any of that. So it’s a belief. It’d be rather arrogant of me to accept this as a reliable method without testing this method, drill through a pipe and wind up with egg on my face.
So, I tested this by getting two magnets to stick vertically, then measured 16" out, got 2 more magnets to stick vertically, kept doing that until I hit half a dozen spots, all 16" apart. Drilled a pilot hole, felt resistance and the smell of wood, drilled a couple more.
I think somewhere between mounting a flat screen to fixing 3 closet shelves it became knowledge, not sure exactly when, but all the doubts were removed and it never blew up in my face. I can just waltz in a room and sink a bunch of holes in the right spot now without being skeptical of some electronic stud finder.
I guess what I mean to say is that testing something and having it consistently work and be reproducible is what leads to knowledge imo
Caloric stimulus is fun too, syringe of ice water in one ear and the pressure difference = mega drunk spins for 2 minutes
John’s Hopkins also discovered Superior Semicircular Canal Dehiscence when resolution of CT scans became high enough to detect fine cracks in bone around the tegmen and all that. SCD also worth a read. Sound doesn’t properly dissipate and instead triggers the cells in the canals leading to sound-induced vertigo and supranormal low frequency hearing (being able to hear your eyeballs scratching against your eyelids etc). Before CT scans got good people got misdiagnosed with all sorts of anxiety type disorders
Gaetz and MTG are batting .500 for ousting their own party’s house speaker. I don’t think we’ll need a coliseum, just C-Span lol
The thing about that is that it’d require cohesion and unity across all Republicans, and it seems like Trump himself is the only one seemingly able to pull this off.
The Whigs tore themselves apart in similar manner and all it’d take is a third of Republicans to back some group of MAGA (or rebranded) politicians who decide to stay on the ballot as third party. There are already multiple factions under the ‘R’ namesake and it’d just take a little pull in opposite directions. They’re a stubborn bunch
Truth Social seems to be a target-rich environment for people who are easy to con.
you don’t say
I know. Will they work together or back an outsider of a presumptive nominee such as MTG? Or will they all just duke it out while a more mainstream Republican capitalizes on the dysfunction? We’ll find out soon enough
Purely anecdotal but I tend to avoid any sensitive hardware purchases off of Amazon because they suck at packaging things a lot of times and I’ve had more than a few DOA components because they just tossed the box into an even larger box then apparently yeeted it down a flight of stairs
Edit: I should add that I live 10 minutes from a Microcenter which plays a large part in my overall pickiness, but that said, when I’m looking for something sensitive to handling and needs to be purchased online I stick to computer hardware retailers solely because they love packing peanuts and bubble wrap as much as the components love them
There’s no apparent successor and there hasn’t been any attempt by Trump to nudge anyone towards that (he doesn’t give a shit about a post-Trump lanscape), but a half dozen people would attempt to claim it as their own, so if MAGA does survive it’d probably be really messy for a while.
Normally we use conventions for this kind of thing but they’d be competing against traditional Republicans in that space, so I’m expecting to see MGT and DJT and Boebert and a bunch of others just try to pull each other’s hair out, like an obscenely wealthy grandparent that had no will and no clear next of kin.
The heirarchal structure is basically Donald so the risk of the entire collective decapitating itself is pretty high
I forgot I even did this but I’m coming up on 10 years in just a couple weeks.
